Tony Stewart comes into Martinsville Speedway relaxed and refreshed after a rare off-weekend on the 38-race weekend Sprint Cup Series schedule. The driver of the #20 Home Depot Toyota for Joe Gibbs Racing is also a bit more aerodynamic, for the long hair he had sported since the end of last season is gone. Stewart’s mane looks more like it did when he was a rookie in 1999.
Tony Stewart, driver of the No. 20 Home Depot Toyota for Joe Gibbs Racing:
What made you decide to finally cut your hair? “To be honest, I just woke up one morning and told one of my roommates, ‘Today’s the day. I’m going to get it cut.’ There was no rhyme or reason for it. I just woke up that morning and decided to get my hair cut, and that was that. I kind of laughed about it myself because there wasn’t anything that happened that made me do it. I just went ahead and did it. People who know me say I look 10 years younger now.”
How is the aftermath of having your back waxed? “It’s already growing back. It’s like a Chia Pet.”
Is it a testament to NASCAR’s popularity that the length of your hair and your hair follicles in general have become a topic of discussion? “Yeah, it’s kind of unbelievable, and it does say that the sport is popular because I never thought the length of my hair would ever gain so much attention.”

Thank god its about time, now maybe he wont look like a fat homeless guy lol
Wait, what? Roommates? Why on earth does Smoke have roommates? No wonder he can’t keep a girlfriend… They go back to his place to close the deal and there’s all kinds of strange roommates hanging around!
NOOOO!!!!!!!!
I liked the hair… grr…
“chia pet”… I love it. LOL, he’s so funny.
GO 20 GOOOOOOOO
doesnt surprise me he doesnt have a girlfriend. ive seen him outside of the track. man wears sweats and baggy dirty shirts out to dave and busters. i understand trying to blend into the crowd, but at least try and look decent.
It’s about friggin’ time!
Roommates don’t hurt my game.. lol. It’s Tony’s “sweats and baggy dirty shirts” that hurt his, but I respect his style.
He looked like a pervert with his long hair. He just disgusts me as it is.
Oh thank God.
He looked awful with long hair in my opinion.
And roommates? lol Never woulda thought.
okay…..?
Ash, let’s be easy.
ow come on Tony. Why did ya cut the Lions Mane?
good for him about time he cut his hair
Roomies..eh Tony don’t be telling about your rommates.
I liked the long hair myself!
What a bummer. As I began to read the article, I was ever-hopeful of learning that Tony had undergone a “full & complete” make-over… but as the paragraphs quickly came to a close - with no mention of Tony’s GREATEST NEED being addressed… my hopes were soon deflated as I realized that his “make-over” was only partial - and lacking…
What might you ask… is Tony still missing??????
Well… just take one glance at that photo next to above article.
I DO NOT SEE ANY DUCT-TAPE WRAPPED AROUND HIS DAMN HEAD…
TO SHUT THAT DAMN STUPID MOUTH OF HIS, WHICH IS EVER-SPEWING VERBAL DIARRHEA - ABOUT ANYBODY AND EVERYBODY…

Joe: Why don’t you tell us how you REALLY FEEL ???
Personally, I’m glad “Smoke” got a haircut but what’s that got to do with his mouth??? As far as I’m concerned SOMEONE has to speak up for the rest of the Boys !!!
I really don’t give a damn about his hair—-
dude looks like he needs a SHOWER!
Shed the baby fat??? he has about 200lbs to go!
waxed his chia pet back?? again, i could care less but if his back looks like a hair shirt that can be 1 reason he has no girlfriend—-& if he did he’d probably push her around like he did that lady reporter/photographer a few years ago!!
all you lady smoke fans forget about that? yep! pushed a lady to the ground stewing over loosing a race!
steer clear ladies—-anger management hasn’t prooved to be of much help
i personally think stewart’s a pig!
someone should wax his balls!
Tony has pretty much always had roommates. He talks about them on his weekly radio show.
They look after his properties while he is on the road so much. But, I agree that at his
age, it would be a turn-off for most girls to go home with a guy who had roommates.
Glad he cut his hair, but now he actually needs to remember to comb it once in a while.
it,s about time, now go and win races,smoke
it,s about time,smoke go and win races now
I couldnt careless what he looks like and as far as his mouth? at least hes not fake an has the nads to speak up unlike some of nascars puppets,and the roommate deal a lot of drivers do that hamlin lived at dale jrs in the past harvick lived at ron hornadays house etc.
Seriously what do looks have to do with racing? And like Lee said other NASCARd drivers haroommates before too Lol.
I think I will NEVER understand the people, who want other individuals all look stereotype with all the same dream-of-all-mother-in-law-look. Everyone should look like he wants - and if one wants to have a long mane - one should go for it, even if conservative hysterical people don’t like it. I’m happy he had a mane and he didn’t give a tinkers damn about what “the others” say.
It’s utterly devastating, if you put 20 men in a line and the only visual thing to distinguish between them is the color of their suit and/or their number on it - because they look all the same… isn’t that DEAD BORING?
